The package maintainers of the Red Hat-supported distribution have updated the software, which consists of approximately 6200 source packages, for the current versions. A pre-release version of Linux 2.6.27 is used as the beta releases kernel, but the Fedora developers have taken the precaution of disabling the e1000e driver, which appears to be jointly responsible for overwriting data in the EEPROM of Intel's network chip. KDE version 4.1.1 is included, but that is also available as a regular update for the current Fedora 9. The GNOME Desktop 2.24 in Fedora 10 is a pre-release version, having only received its final release in the last few days. Users of the beta will be able to get the final version and other bug fixes in the form of daily updates from the Rawhide developer tree. These updates will then be brought together in a preview release build for testing in early November.
